My divisional preview series is designed to be a long-form extension of our Move The Line division betting breakdowns. I'll be previewing each division while providing you with insight on the best ways to bet on each team. This time, we're looking at the AFC South.

The Titans have been one of the league's most efficient offenses over the past two years, though it's fair to wonder if that'll change with former offensive coordinator Arthur Smith now running the show in Atlanta. The Titans will be acclimating lots of new faces on the field as well.

It looked as though new quarterback Carson Wentz would miss some time due to recent surgery on his foot, but reports are positive, and Wentz is trending towards starting in Week 1. Is head coach Frank Reich the Wentz whisperer? The answer to that question will go a long way in determining how 2021 goes for Indianapolis.

Urban Meyer has been handed the keys in Jacksonville. He'll be looking to develop top overall selection, Trevor Lawrence, into the generational talent he's been touted to be. This young Jaguars roster could take a big step forward quickly if Lawrence is that dude.

The Jack Easterby saga is worth a column of its own, as is the Deshaun Watson story. For now, the Texans are forced to move forward without their starting quarterback and the league's most disjointed roster.
